Description
These are three wall hooks cut in the shape of birds, painted in multicoloured shades with fine lines picking out wings, tails and eyes. Each bird is a different character: one flies with its wings raised, while the other two perch side on with long painted tails. Below each body a short round peg stands out from the wall, and that peg is where a little bag, a hat or a scarf hangs. They are made of MDF and iron with a painted finish, and each one is a small piece, 8.5cm long, 10cm wide and 4cm tall, so a row of three fits a short stretch of wall without crowding it.
We see them in a child's bedroom or playroom, where three birds give small belongings a place of their own: a favourite tote, a sun hat, a dressing-up cape. A hook that looks like a friend is easier to remember than a plain one, and the round pegs are simple to find when hats come off in a hurry. They also make a cheerful bit of wall decoration in a nursery, spaced in a loose line so the birds seem to be flying past, with the bird in flight leading the way at one end.
The birds are cut from MDF, a dense, smooth board that takes paint well, and the painted finish gives each one its flat, illustrated look. MDF swells if it soaks up water, so keep them on a dry wall and wipe them with a dry or barely damp cloth. The maker's assembly instructions come as a PDF download, and we would read them through before fixing the hooks in place. The maker lists the weight as 0.07KG. For styling, hang them at slightly different heights rather than in a strict line, which suits the way the three birds face different directions.
